Barefoot floor now for nurseries

If you looking to put a spring in your step, mums at flooring company Barefoot Living have come up with a new surface designed with kids in mind.

Bounce is a seamless floor for nurseries and plays areas in the home that is that has a springy feel. 

Barefoot Living’s designers, Andrea Hall, a mum of three, and Tamara
Fearon, a mum of two – together with office manager Karen Nobes, a mum of
twin boys, collaborated on the floor’s design to get the right finish.

Cheshire-based Barefoot Living is led by entrepreneur Dawn Gibbins MBE,
herself a mother of two teenage daughters. Dawn said: “Our mums wanted something that was safe, sustainable and easy
to look after.

“The floor is nice and springy, so it absorbs knocks and bumps, but it is
still really hard-wearing and – because it’s seamless and a sealed surface
– it’s easy to clean too.

“It is a great surface for children to stretch their little toes and walk
barefoot.

“Recycled materials are also used in the floor, so it does its bit for the
environment too.

“Bounce looks great. A wide-range of colours and styles can be chosen, so
the floor can really make a nursery or playroom bright and inviting.

“It just shows what mums can do when they are able to bounce ideas
together.”
